It takes courage to audition for a talent competition like “The Voice,” and most adults would shudder with anxiety with even the thought of having to perform in front of millions. As such, when a child is able to take the stage to audition, it’s even more impressive.

In the video below, you’ll see a kid not only take the stage to audition, but proceed to blow everyone away with an incredible performance of a classic Queen hit.

Jesse Pardon is a young boy who was barely in his teens when he decided to audition for “The Voice of Holland Kids.” When he took the stage, he decided to sing the song “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen. This is widely considered to be one of the most difficult songs to sing, so the audience feared the worst before Jesse started. As soon as he opened his mouth, however, it was clear to everyone that they had nothing to fear!

Jesse brings the song “Bohemian Rhapsody” to life in a whole new way, and he knocks it out of the park. Before long, all four judges have turned their chairs around for him!

Once he was done, the audience gave him a standing ovation, showing once again that his audition was a huge success. Video of his audition has since gone viral, being viewed over 12 million times.

This young man clearly has a long career in music ahead of him, should he continue to pursue it. We can’t wait to see where his music career takes him in the years to come!
